Glycolic acid cream comes in a variety of strengths and forms. The effectiveness of this restorative chemical exfoliating cream is determined by its free acid value, which depends on 2 factors:
1. The ideal concentration for nightly use is 4-10% glycolic acid.
2. Low pH formulas preserve the strength of the glycolic acid for optimal efficacy on skin
